Moving south: effects of water temperatures on the larval development of invasive cane toads (Rhinella marina) in cool‐temperate Australia

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2016
The distributional limits of many ectothermic species are set by thermal tolerances of early‐developmental stages in the life history; embryos and larvae often are less able to buffer environmental variation than are conspecific adults.

Comparative Immunology. Lymph Nodes in the Amphibian, Bufo marinus

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1964
SummaryEncapsulated nodes of lymphoid tissue have been demonstrated in the upper thorax, neck and axilla of the amphibian, Bujo marinus. The nodes phagocytize India ink and form antibody to bovine serum albumin. The anatomical and functional characteristics of these lymph nodes indicate that they are comparable to lymph nodes of mammals.

Dehydration and the natriuretic peptide system in the toad, Bufo marinus

open access: yes, 2003
The natriuretic peptide system is a family of related proteins that in humans function to reduce blood pressure and blood volume. However, in amphibians the function is less well understood.

Cromoblastomicosis Experimental en Bufo marinus

open access: yesRevista de Biología Tropical, 2013
Reviewing the observations of CARINI and the experimental work of ALMEIDA and AREA LEAO, MELLO & CURY on the pathogenicity of the etiologic agents of Chromoblastomycosis inyected intraperitonealy in Salientia species Leptodactylus ocellatus and L. pentadactylus, we decided to determine the pathogenicity of Fonsecaeae pedrosoi on Bufo marinus.

Ventilatory behaviors of the toad Bufo marinus revealed by coherence analysis

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology, 2003
Breathing in amphibians is a remarkably complex behavior consisting of irregular breaths that may be taken singly or in bouts that are used to deflate and inflate the lungs.

Repulsion from chemical cues in Bufo marinus (Cane toad) tadpoles, May 2009

open access: yes, 2009
Predator-prey relationships have been studied relentlessly throughout all different taxa and systems. Larval anurans use the mode of chemosensory to detect and avoid predation.

Direct and indirect effects of the introduced toad Bufo marinus (Anura: Bufonidae) on populations of native anuran larvae in Australia

open access: yes, 2000
Introduced species are frequently believed to have adverse effects on native biota and ecosystems. However, much of our knowledge of the ecological impacts of introduced species is anecdotal, and the mechanisms controlling these effects are often poorly ...
